; Official returns of pig iron production
In the first half of thu year show a
record breaking aggregate of 7.07-1.713

put of the previous yenr by 32.044

opened with a much greater capacity
of active furnace, and the full year

than the 1.1.7s!i.i't2 tons p roil need In

ed by the strike, which Iw nn evi

resumption of work. Violent fluctua
tions have marked the course of corn
prios. The top point of the previous
week was not regained, but traders on

pelled to recover at a loss. The de
ciiiise in marketlug Is nut in pro-
- portion to tne advance In price. What

the high level of prices. U certainly
